Re: Pixelart webcomic: page 18, spread the joy!
I found this comic 3 days ago and wondered how I could have missed it for the last possibly 2 months (judged from the usual update-schedule around here and the high quality of the strips).
Now I've come to terms with that it is just a insane update-schedule (which outclasses what abr's gathered forces are able to accomplish atm).
I very much hope this will last - but don't burn yourself!

To answer your question, the thread was made less than a week ago.

Re: Pixelart webcomic: page 18, spread the joy!
I think I'll try to keep this up till page 30, after which I've at least got the intro chapter for each of the 3 main characters done, after that I'll possibly slow it down a bit.
To be honest, it's really hard to predict how well I can keep it up really, the only comics that take out a significant chunk of my time are probably the ones that require an entirely new background [like the last comic, which required a complete town setting.]
Otherwise, although I've got some general story ideas, I'm really just making a lot of things up as I go.
[I'm kind of reverse engineering the story in some ways, an example would be that I have a good idea what a lot of the later implications of things will be and how they'll get there, but I've left their introduction or path relatively open, meaning that a lot of things [prime example: joy] were preplanned in implications, but the two intro pages introducing joy were just my idea of having a good and creepy introduction for a major player in the comic's future.]
Either way, 18 pages done, this means two more pages of Noah's story and I'll finally be able to introduce the final hero..ine, Tobi!
I agree, watch out so you don't burn yourself out, I want more of this comic.
The most difficult parts making new portraits/backgrounds are still rather easy as I'm getting fairly adept at just rapidly making new ones.
The only thing that can get in my way is if school gets busier, or if I get at a point in one of the three stories where I lack the inspiration to know how to continue from that point on.
[edit]
I've been thinking about titles some more.
Something I came up with today is "paths of our world"
It's fitting due to the plural of paths implying the several storylines in a non gimmicky way that could apply to the seperate storylines as well, above that it'd have the acronym: "Poow"
which is pretty awesome as an acronym.
I may be keeping that one, unless it's severely hated by a lot of this thread's readers.Last edited by Neoriceisgood; 2008-11-29 at 06:22 PM.

This is a really good plot comic. I think a lot of people could learn from you.

Re: Pixelart webcomic: page 18, spread the joy!
Really? Thanks!
I'll be honest in saying that I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing yet,
anything specific that makes you say Noah's story arc has a good plot people could learn from?
If I've got a good idea what I'm doing right I can try keeping it in mind, because it may have been something that was unintentional to begin with.

Re: Pixelart webcomic: page 18, spread the joy!
Not just Noah's, the comic as a whole.
It's interesting and from what I can tell, original.

Re: Pixelart webcomic: page 18, spread the joy!
Thanks, Although it's hard to be entirely original with the number of fictional works out there, I do hope/try to go for an as original plot/story as possible.
If I can keep up the two pages a day pattern I'll finish chapter 2 today, which means I can finally get to Tobi's story.
I should try getting to page 19 soon.

Re: Pixelart webcomic: page 18, spread the joy!
For the title of the thread, just pick a title for the comic and put it in. You shouldn't bother changing the title for every comic, because after 30 days or so, you can no longer change the title of a thread. So I would suggest thinking of a good title in the time you have left.

Re: Pixelart webcomic: page 18, spread the joy!
Oh thanks for the heads up, I didn't realise there was a time limit for changing the title.
I was thinking about the title "paths of our world", I mentioned a few posts earlier, nobody commented on it though.
The paths part nicely works in terms of there being several stories/paths, and it's got a cool acronym: POOW.
So I'm thinking of sticking with that.

Edit in favor of page 19;

Re: Pixelart webcomic:Spread the joy; title pending.
Paths of our World sounds good, with a tint of epicness.

How the heck is Noah meant to demonstrate that he can't see his own reflection?

Re: Pixelart webcomic:Spread the joy; title pending.
Not that difficult actually.
If he can't see himself it means he should be able to see anything directly behind his reflection, so if you held a playing card or a card with a number behind him while he was looking in a mirror, he should be able to tell what the card was 100% of the time, eventhough his reflection -should- be in the way of the card.
[just one example of a way to demonstrate it really.]

Re: Pixelart webcomic:Spread the joy; title pending.
In one of the strips, you use <>, I imagine because Noah is thinking. Then in the next panels it's not used anymore... Did he say all these insults out loud?
Also, his hair appears as blonde to me. I've looked carefully, and the darker part just look like a dark blonde. It's possible that it's just me, though, my screen doesn't seem to display colours exactly the same as others

Re: Pixelart webcomic:Spread the joy; title pending.
He likes talking to himself, he said it "out loud" at the point he wasn't clearly within her immediate hearing range; doesn't really affect the story I guess.
Regarding his haircolour, it's not necessarily that his hair is bright green or anything fancy like that; but on the colour spectrum it's clearly edging too far into the green area to really be considered a proper naturally blonde colour.
I'd call it a haircolour on the verge of realism, or something.

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
It would be easy to make a game out of this - I could put together something crude in a day or two if I had some spritesheets.
Also, would you mind crediting me for the av in your sig?

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
I don't really have any spritesheets that animate well for the comic, and the only reason it's in comic format is because I don't really plan to make a game out of it.
I make the sprites/poses as the story demands, the poses in the comic are pretty much the only ones I have so far.

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
Page 20
I'm gonna double post cause I can, sorry.
Either way, 10 pages for Burk's chapter, 10 pages for Noah's chapter.
After this it's time to introduce the final of the three heroes! Tobi~
Hope both story arcs were fun so far, they were definitely very different, and I hope I can make the 3rd arc just as different [I doubt it though, it'd probably land inbetween.]
We'll see when I make it.Last edited by Neoriceisgood; 2008-11-30 at 06:16 PM.

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
No updates today, my brother's over and it's been impossible to get enough free time for myself to do any comic work at all due to his persistance that it's "fun to hang out with me, so you should do it.'.
Chances are I won't be able to properly start on Tobi's story till wednesday, because I gotta be able to take photos of my backgrounds to digitalise em when it's light out; and I won't get home from school till it's dark for as far as I know tomorrow.

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
That's fine. It's not actually that long a wait, when you think about it. It's probably about 4 days, which is much faster than most A&C comics.
Looking forward to seeing the new angle.Last edited by Wreckingrocc; 2008-12-01 at 02:52 PM.

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
But wait! If Noah turns into the Mage, who will be Burk's Cool Guy?!?
Yes, I know you've already said that Burk may very well not be right in his predictions. But I can still dream, can't I?Current Games:

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
Noah's not part of Burk's "dream team"
Burk is a hero who may or may not get his own team.
Noah is a hero who leads in an entirely different story that may end up influencing or be influenced by Burk's story.
*edit*
Oh well, I don't think I can get to a new comic today, but here's some stuff to at least give this thread some new material;
Full pic of Dale student section [zoomed out, but okay]
Picture of Tobi's home location, Rauel.

Re: name pending; Pixelart webcomic.
I personally like the desert scenery and towns/cities. They look so fresh and they stick out well.
